"I highly recommend A and P plumbing! I woke up to a soaking wet carpet in my family room. I called A and P plumbing and Don answered. I explained my emergency and he asked me a few questions about the situation. He and Bill came out same day a found the leak in my crawl space and fixed the issue immediately. Both gentlemen were professional and respectful. I now have this company on speed dial incase of any future mishaps. 5 star all the way! THANK YOU DON AND BILL FOR SAVING THE DAY"

"I literally had, not only black mold, but mushrooms growing in my basement due to the high moisture and water coming up from the cracks. after doing a lot of research on basement waterproofing, EverDry was the only company whom I thought did the job â the right wayâ . Other companies wanted to put the water track on top of the footer of the house (which makes no sense). EverDry put in a system similar to a French drain which took care of 75% of my basement problem. Then they tackled the outside problem. The foreman and his team were courteous and knowledgeable. True that theyâ re not the cheapest option out there, but theyâ re worth every dollar. I would definitely call EverDry again for another house or recommend them to another person in the same situation."

"I recently hired this company to install a yard French drainage system to eliminate stand water in my back yard and both sides of the house. Not only was the cost reasonable, but Lonnie was a true professional. He walk me through the entire installation and explained how and why the system works and connects to the down spouts. I did not expect this and I consider him a friend."

French Drains questions, answered by experts

On average, a plumber will take 30 minutes to two hours to clear a clogged drain. If the clog is located close to the drain or an access point and isn’t severe, the project will take about half an hour. If the clog is deep within your plumbing system or is a severe blockage, it can take two or more hours to remove the clog. For this reason, main line clogs tend to take longer, usually between two and three hours.

Boiling water helps unclog a drain, but usually only with a harder abrasive such as baking soda or vinegar. On its own, it isn’t the most effective tool. In addition, you shouldn’t use boiling water if you have PVC pipes, as it can soften or melt them. Use a plunger or enlist the help of a pro if you have plastic pipes.

Air gaps get clogged by a few different means. Over time, food and grime can collect in the air gap, leading to a blockage. Mineral deposits from hard water are a common problem. Mineral buildup creates a film in the air gap and tubing, which can cause flow issues, as well as attract debris. Homeowners with hard water may want to remove mineral deposits regularly to keep the air gap clean and clear.

It takes hair about two years to dissolve on its own in the drain without the use of any tool or help. Fortunately, using a drain snake, plunger, or any of the actions mentioned above to dissolve the hair will help get rid of the clog in as little as 15 minutes. 

Water leaking through your basement floor is a good sign of a clogged drain, but another sign of a clogged basement floor drain can include unpleasant odors coming from the drain. Also, hearing gurgling noises when water drains from the basement or having other plumbing fixtures (like toilets or other drains) backing up is a good indicator.
